JURY and CLASS ACTION WAIVER Clause Samples

The Jury and Class Action Waiver clause serves to eliminate the parties' rights to a trial by jury and to participate in class action lawsuits regarding disputes arising from the agreement. In practice, this means that any legal claims must be resolved through individual proceedings, typically in court or arbitration, and cannot be combined with claims from other individuals in a class or collective action. The core function of this clause is to streamline dispute resolution, reduce litigation costs, and prevent the complexities and potential liabilities associated with class action lawsuits.
